Its included in some commercial kits. Consider it a backup. It's not in mine, though, because I agree that there are far better options. Also, in an ejection, ditching, capsize or escape situation, your gear tends to get dumped, lost or stripped away, and all you might have left is a tiny, last ditch survival kit tucked away deep.

BTW, if a sock is "half your clothes" you've got other issues with your outdoor kit. And thanks for the visual. ;-)
